Network Solutions - Security


Always-on Internet connections offer businesses significant advantages; however, new network security concerns are raised as networks become vulnerable to external security breaches from Internet hackers, viruses, and worms.

Paradym provides a wide range of internal and external security services to make your network less attractive to attacks. To keep our clients abreast on the developing Internet threats, we issue Technical Bulletins to educate our clients on the latest virus and/or worm that is circulating the Internet. If the threat is immediate, we will contact our security clients to inform them of the developing situation. Your network security is a primary mission for Paradym. In the event that your network is compromised, our Virus Response Team is available to provide quick and thorough response to damage caused by a hacker, virus, or worm.

Maintenance and Monitoring of Network Security .

Paradym also provides a cost effective solution to Internet security with our managed Internet security service. SecureNET utilizes a versatile security appliance to protect your network from a devastating attack. With SecureNET , you receive:
  • Internet Security Appliance . Paradym utilizes the latest technology to provide a completely integrated security solution that enables real-time security services. These firewall products provide access security to protect corporate assets from hackers and the tools necessary for network administrators to ensure the integrity of internal security policies and procedures.
  • Remote management . Our expert firewall engineers install and configure the security appliance for your network. Upon installation and configuration, we monitor the firewall to ensure it is online and running properly. There is no need to allocate your critical personnel to Internet security.
  • Continuous firmware updates. We ensure the firewall is providing up-to-date protection from the latest known hacking techniques. With constant updates and patches, maintaining hardware and software is a chore. We relieve you of the burden of updating firmware and guarantee that your system will always have the most recent protection.
  • Activity reporting . Each month you will receive an activity report, which displays external threats and details your corporate Internet usage. This report allows you to track Internet usage and to monitor compliance with your corporate policy.

Paradym Technologies SecureNET allows additional services to be seamlessly integrated with the basic offering. By adjoining the Basic Services with any of the following Additional Services, you are able to customize SecureNET to suit your needs.

  • Network Anti-Virus . Network anti-virus provides up-to-date desktop virus scanning that is distributed and enforced automatically on every computer on the network. Updates are automatically downloaded to the desktop ensuring that each workstation has the most current virus definition files.
  • Virtual Private Networking (VPN). VPNs allow geographically dispersed operations and offices to securely link up via the Internet to access business-critical information on the company network. A VPN is a cost effective method to connect a dispersed enterprise.
  • Content Filtering . Content filtering allows you to set and enforce Internet usage policies governing what materials can and cannot be accessed on the organization's computers. Blocking can be based on a continuously updated list of sites that contain objectionable content, or you can also customize blocked sites by URL or keyword allowing objectionable sites to be totally blocked or blocked based on a category of content.

Security Scan and Analysis.
The first step in assessing your networks' external vulnerability is to perform a preliminary security analysis.  We are offering you a preliminary security analysis.  Simply complete the Security Scan and Analysis Authorization form and fax it to Paradym at (317) 571-7961 or contact Paradym directly.  We will have a report ready for you within 72 hours.

Disaster Recovery - Business Continuity Planning.
Many companies proceed with day-to-day activities in ways they see as practical, easy, and well understood. However, when businesses implement both Disaster Recovery Plans and Business Continuity Plans throughout the entire organization, they have a stronger backbone supporting all of their activities.

Every business can experience a catastrophic incident that can h amper it from continuing normal business operations - these situations can happen anywhere, any time, and can range from a flood or explosion to a serious computer malfunction or information security incident.

The corporate management has a responsibility to recover from such incidents in the minimum amount of time possible... but this recovery process requires careful preparation and planning.

Paradym works with companies to institute the best way to proceed with day-to-day activities, backing up data and other critical assets, and resuming work in times of serious adverse circumstances.  We will work with you to develop both a Disaster Recovery Plan, a guide to the orderly restoration of information services or processes in the event of a disaster, and a Business Continuity Plan, detailed plans and procedures required to enable the continued delivery of products and services in the event of disruption to mission critical IT functions, processes, and applications.

Intrusion Detection.
Intrusion detection inspects all inbound and outbound network activity and identifies suspicious patterns that may indicate a network or system attack from someone attempting to break into or compromise a system.  Intrusion detection differs from a firewall in that a firewall looks out for intrusions in order to stop them from happening. Intrusion detection evaluates a suspected intrusion once it has taken place and signals an alarm. Also, intrusion detection watches for attacks that originate from within a system.

For each threat posed to your network, you will receive an immediate threat notification email that will inform you of the type of threat, the day, the time, and the IP address where the threat originated. Paradym will also receive a copy of the threat notification. If we see any suspicious activity or an IP address appearing numerous times, we will investigate in order to keep your network as safe and secure as possible.

Vulnerability Assessments. 
Networks, both large and small, are susceptible to various levels of attacks by hackers, worms, and viruses.  By identifying and assessing these vulnerabilities, you have taken the first step in securing your network.  Once you understand your vulnerabilities and the threats that they possess, you can begin building a viable solution to secure your property and personnel.

Paradym provides customized vulnerability assessments; not all networks are the same and neither should the vulnerability assessment.  We will identify all vulnerabilities and assist you in assessing the actual threat they pose to your network.  Once threats are determined, we will help you develop and implement the proper security measures and safeguards.
